Crazy doctors

I often get attacked by Moray medical boats! Even while my legal status is clean (as well as theirs). They even "turn red" near the station. What do they want? To take me to asylum for psychiatric treatment?

I've had that happen too. And if you kill errr, retaliate, your legal status takes a beating...
It is generally inadvisable to eject over the target you just bombed.

you've got to be seen though, as for their aggressiveness it must depend on all those narcotics they're carrying around, it must not be only arcturan megaweed...

Might be, they just want you to use the escape pod...
as you have just volunteered to become an organ donor. ;)

Isn't there a cargo item called Medical Supplies? I'm sure I saw this in the Amiga version.

If not, can it be added to the trade list? it would be a useful thing for a ship to drop.

Maybe something to tweak...

When you get attacked by medical ships they send you the message:
"Thank you for volunteering your body to medical science." and "Thank you for becoming an organ donor." also, cracker this one, "Thank you for being a donation card holder, your card has been randomly selected for immediate effect."
The act of talking b*ll*cks whilst waving one's arms about wildly is referred to as testiculation.
